Having problems with your Olympus X-875 Digital Camera ?

How do you take black and white pictures on the Olympus X-875 Digital Camera?

Answers :

Sorry, but the X-875 doesn't have a black&white mode. However, just about any photo editing program should allow you to convert any color photo to black&white. Doing so on a computer is generally better than letting the camera do it, as you have much better control over brightness, contrast, and other settings.

Screen problems My Olympus FE-4000 12 MP digital camera with 4X wide angle optical zoom was working fine until one afternoon when I went to take a picture. The camera was never dropped into water, or exposed to heavy outdoor elements. The problem is that the screen in general has some white patches and two large black patches over it so you can only see a small part of the image. My question to you is, what seems to be the problem, and how can it be fixed? There is no damage to the outer surface

I want to take black and white photos on my Casio Exilim EX-Z30 Digital Camera. Is there a setting that allows me to do this? I have checked the instructions but it doesn't seem to mention how I can change the colour settings, just the White Balance. Am I only able to take colour pictures?

The EX-Z30 doesn't have a black-and-white mode. You can convert a color picture to black-and-white using just about any photo-editing program on a computer, and this will give you better control over the conversion than any camera. ...

Screen problem?? Hello can anyone help? My camera turns on just fine and takes pics fine. Tonight while turning on my camera the screen is all white with some black lines through it.. and a leaf looking thing which is black. I see NO PICTURE at all.

Is the olympus sp- 510 uz a good camera? I found one at the pawn shop for a good price. I want to use it to take pictures, as a hobby. The guy that sold it to me, said I can take black and white with it.

It was $279.95 when it came out in 2006. A lot of people liked it. If yours actually works (buying at a pawn shop is always "iffy") and you got it at a great price, be happy. ...

Olympus X-42 Camera - the screen has gone white (with a few thin green/purple vertical lines). When I switch on the camera the screen is white, there is no picture or menu displayed. I have checked by plugging it into the tv, and it takes pictures and goes into menus fine - it just doesn't display anything on camera screen. I have only had the camera for a week, and have not stored it anywhere humid. Is there anything I can do to fix, or do I just have to take it to get repaired?

There doesn't appear to be a solution. I have had to send mine off to be repaired. They don't provide a camera case but it is a very necessary piece of aquipment. I was told that the screen had been pressed. I can only think that this occured when tr ...

My Olympus 850 SW Underwater camera will not turn on in the picture taking mode. I can view previous taken pictures, however I can not turn on the camera to take pictures. The camera will just beep a few times and the screen will stay black.

I have an Olympus FE-330 The problem I am having is when I take pictures at night, focusing on anything is impossible. The view shows black, until the picture is taken. After the picture has been taken it shows a great view of the picture in the screen. Even changing the setting to night, does nothing-it's black I honestly was thinking of replacing the camera for this reason, it is very frustrating. Other than that, it is a great little camera.

Take a flashlight with you and shine it on what you want to focus. Press the shutter half-way, shut off the flashlight and press the rest of the way. ...

Bought a digital camera two weeks ago, FE3000 Olympus. Cant take a picture without horizontal lines appearing on my LCD.only 20% of the pictures I take are without these lines.

Even in iauto mode I seldom get a perfect shot. What is wrong???????Please help me. I am willing to pay 9.95 if you can help me fix my camera. Again its an

Flash problem So, I set the camera to 'Flash On'. I take a picture and the flash goes off for about a quick second. I look at the picture and it's nothing but a black background, sometimes white where I can only slightly see the object I took the picture of. What's wrong with my camera? This only happens sometimes, by the way. Sometimes I take a picture and everything's normal.

The CCD element has been a great problem in this camera along with a faulty iris in the lens. I would return the camera to the Sony facility in Laredo, TX and let them know the exact symptom you are having. I see many of these cameras being repaired ...
